Andreas Krieger (born Heidi Krieger) is a German former shot putter who competed on the women’s East German athletics team. Krieger underwent gender reassignment surgery and became a trans man in 1997 after years of being systematically and unknowingly doped with anabolic steroids which caused body chemistry issues. He said that while he did experience gender dysphoria before being doped, he regretted not being able to make the actual transition without the doping abuses. (via Wikipedia)
